She was most certainly real. Here's her Find a Grave memorial with a supporting news article, https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/250277859/shirley-elizabeth-highfield , and the r/vintageads subreddit took a detailed look at her some time ago - https://www.reddit.com/r/vintageads/comments/18dxqu3/the_astonishing_mrs_highfield_for_rinsos_soap/
